VIEWING THE ENEmTs POSITION.
How Gen. Meade Examined the confed- -a.s yyorks 10 His Hearts Content.

How Gen. Meade Examined the Sonieo-
 .rate Works to His Hearts Content.
 Juue I9-Sundsy-Pickets were firing au night. Today has been bright and exceed ingly hot Sharpshooters and artillery at work all day. We marched hack to our original position last night, but brought all our killed and wounded. We are now m plain sight of the cIty-Petersburg. Al a. m a battery of mOrtars commenced she'll ing the enemy, doing good execution
 Al 10 a. m. an orderly handed me note from Gen. Hancock. in which he told me that Gen Meade had ordered him to charge th. eneruy's work m our front immediately. and he asked me my opinion as to how many men il vouh cost 1 sent word back that l thought it would cost 2O,OOO men, and then It was doubtful as to our being able to carry the works Gen. Hancock sent my note Co Gen. Meade, who. after reading it, sent for me to come to his headquarters at once. went and explained to him the enenys po.ition. but. as l did not wish him to depend entirely on my opinion, I requested him Co go with me and 20 for himseif He consented, and suggested that he doh bis uniform coat and don plain blouse and hat. He did SD, and after we had ridden a few hundred wards proposed to hitch our hOrses and go the rest of the way on foot. I was deter mined that the general should see just what was in front of Us, and knew he had too much sense to drive the men into a charse after he saw the enemy's position
 We now continued our way on foot. There was a line of old locust trees, about ten or fif- teen feet apart, along which a board fence had been built and hedge planted. The hedge
 .t.s sl. l.aavYN ffFffsa and the locust trees, it afforded pretty good shelter for our front line of administers, who were about loo yards from the eneIny's lines. Leading down Co this position was little clump of second growth PineS. Well, by stoop- ing low and walking on our hands and knees for a few rods. the general and l reached the hedge. On reaching a little opening in the hedge. the general took a low position and handed him my field glass, which, by the way, s a very strong one. nnd be lay down and ex- amined the enemy's works tO his hearts con tent. When he had satisfied himself he handed me ,he glass and said, Wen go back Not another word was spoken until We reached our horse. When galloping back be simply made the remark, T had mo idea they had SO strong a position But when we reached headquarters be thanked me very kindly for my suggestions, etc, and l hade him good day and went back Co the front
 We did no; charge the enemy that day, and I am confident that thousands of lives were saved by our not doing SO. The fell in front of the enemy was level and smooth. Their strong Notifications were crowded with in fantry, and we could see the muzzles of at least 20J pieces of artillery, undoubtedly double-shottei, awaiting us. But We did not please the rcbs by attending the picnic they had evidently gotten up for our beneht- Gen. F. W ButterGeld's Diary in Kansas City Journal

What Trne Merit Will Do.

The unprecedented sale of Boschee's German Syrup within few years, has sstonished tbe world. 1t IS without & doubt ths safest and best remedy ever discovered for the speedy and effectual cure of Coughs, Colds and the severest Lung troubles. IL scts on sn entirely different principle from the usual pres criptions given by Physicians, ss it does pot dry up Cough and leave the disease still n ihe system, but on the contrary removes the cause of the trouble, hesls the parts affected snd leaves them n & purely healthy condition. A bottle kept in the house for use when the diseases make their appearance, will cave doctors bills and long spell of serious illness. A trial will convince you of these facts. It is positively sold by all druggists and general dealers in the land. Price, 75 cents, large bottles,

The Ball.

The Christmas eve ball of the railroad employees library association was bril- liant nifair indeed, and it will long be re- memoered as one of the most joyous oc- casioIs of the kind that ever took place in this city. The attendance was large, fully three hundred and fifty persons being present. During the earlier hours of the evening much merrimeDt was oc- casiored by the Christmas tree and the incongruiey of the presents with those upon whom they were bestowed. There were three hundred gifts distributed. many of them quite expensive. The Christmss tree WAS Montery pine, from Blue Canon, Nevada, and was brought here expressly for this occasion. The great dining room of the San Xavier was handsomely decorated with ever greens, and the ladies having this mat ter in charge, deserve especial credit for the tes.t, skill and industry display ed.
 The exercises commenced with music, both instrumental and vocal. the latter being an exquisite gem from an opera, ICuuCISu Oh hlos -hODhuAI.
 Then the presents were handed down from the handsome Christmas tree and the real fun commenced. Lou Martin was especially favored SIth unique punch bowl, which was immediately put to a good purpose Gi Lon's expense. Other equally amusing episodes were experienced and one continuous round of enjoy meDt was had unIl the hotel guest began to clsmor for theIr break fast when the gay dancers dispersed by the light Of a Christmas morning sun.
 The supper was 6 grand affair and every one had enoagh and tO spare.
 Such another happy occasion has never been experienced ID IccsOn, aud to the credit of the raIlraGd employees who managed II, 1t may bs added that no more decorous or gen.ee! Essemblage Is possible.
 In financial sense. :hs fair realized the expenses incurred. wSich vas al that was expected; but in social sense there was nothing left maintained. and those who participated are even now urging the preparations for another grand ball under the same management for St. ValentIne's Day.

Cnme,Iian and Tragedian.

T saw John T. Raymond and Edwin Booth prolnenading together one day last week, V said Hoyne avenue man. ~The comedian, who was telling his companion funny story, had his right arm elevated in the 'and-dOn't- vou-for-et-ir style, while his face was split into hemispheres and longitudinal lines by smile that sank away below his collar. The tracedian's face betrayed no mirth. Hlseyes were fixed on the clouds, the lnes about his mouth were tightly drawn, and his slender white hands held each other at the base of his spine. When Raymond had finished his story he turned one of his peculiar eyes on Booth and punched him in the ribs The great actor. apparently brought back to conscious ness by the friendly poke, but with his eyes still riyeted on the clouds, broke the silence with these words: Good story, John; tell some moro. .'--Chicago Herald
